Processing time:

We aim to dispatch your order within 1-2 working days via Royal Mail from London (UK).

We do not ship on weekends or bank holidays.

Note: if you chose a "Tracked Shipping Service" we'll provide you a tracking number for your order, otherwise we won't able to do so, as we'll ship it with "Untracked Standard Postage". 

 

 

Estimated shipping times:

-United Kingdom: 1-2 business days.

-Rest of the world: from 7-10 business days up to 2-4 weeks.*

*Note: After the item arrives in your country it has been known to take between 2-4 weeks to clear customs. These delays are completely out of our control and are decided by customs in each individual country.

 

 

Yes, we ship worldwide!

 

 

Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. We are not responsible for delays due to customs.

Now that the UK has left the EU, import VAT is likely to be applied on items going between the UK and the EU, according to your country import law.

Import duties are calculated and charged by local customs authorities in many of the countries we ship to. If this applies, this will be an additional cost to you. It is likely you will be required to pay the import duty to your local customs authority before the goods can be released to your delivery address, so please take into account that this will increase the delivery time stated by the delivery service.

Note: Some countries have been known to take between 2~4 weeks to clear customs.  For more details on refund policy caused by delay in customs clearance please see Return Policy.

    - Buyers must provide a tracking number once the item has been returned as we cannot refund/exchange lost returns.

    Jewellery needs to be looked after following these guidelines:

    Do not wear your plated jewellery in the shower, while bathing, working out or sleeping as this can strip off the gold or silver plating.

    To help your jewellery last as long as possible:

    • Our plated items are costume jewellery, not solid gold or silver as reflected in our pricing.
    • Avoid exposing jewellery to water, chemicals, household products, and perfumes/lotions which can cause jewellery to discolour.
    • Put on your jewellery last when getting ready to avoid spraying perfume/deodorant or getting moisturiser/sprays on it.
    • Between wearing, we recommend that you keep your jewellery in the pouches we send them in to avoid them touching anything that could damage them.
    • With proper care, your jewels will retain their beauty and character.
